Quatrain 77 from Rubaiyat of Rumi
Description: English Translation of the Quatrain
Moses' staff is one-sided for this flock,
With one morsel, he can satisfy them all.
He neither allows a trumpet nor a battle,
No intellect can comprehend this murmur.
Analysis of the Quatrains
Moses and the Flock: The poet uses the biblical story of Moses as a metaphor, likely referring to a spiritual guide or leader.
The One-Sided Staff: The "one-sided staff" symbolizes a unique and powerful tool, perhaps representing spiritual knowledge or divine grace.
The Miracle of Sustenance: The ability to feed a multitude with a single morsel is a reference to miraculous powers and the divine provision.
Beyond Intellect: The final line suggests that the true meaning of this spiritual experience is beyond the grasp of the intellect.
